Hey all,

Boy its been awhile since ive been in here... things have changed a lot too!! but it looks cool...

Anyhoo... I need a bit of advice.. I have a Mexican Milksnake (Tsunami)
she is currently eating 2 mice pups (about 2inches in length) and keeps looking for more food after that.. Now she herself is just over 2 ft now i measured her last shed skin at roughly 26inches. I feed her 2 mice pups every 2 weeks, is this enough?? or should i give her more?? I don't want to over or under feed her..

AnY thoughts of suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Mice pups are as big as i can go with her she won't take anything bigger than that.

Thanks in advanced.

Too many prey items is not good. If he won't take rats then let him go for a few weeks then try 1 (one) rat of equal or 1.5 times the girth. You can't feed your king mice all its life unless you want to feed it about 10 a week. A buddy of mine has a mexican black king that eats medium rats with no problem. Imagine filling that up with mice. Try a live rat fuzzie. If that works then you know he will take a larger rat. When they get hungry enough they eat anything!!! Kings are the taste testers of the world my friend. They eat anything they can catch. Snakes, birds, lizards, rats, mice, small squirells, any thing.
